Uncover hidden stories at Museum Batavialand

Job Opening: Junior Content Marketer

Museum Batavialand is seeking a Junior Content Marketer for the RUUM youth project. Within RUUM, young people from Flevoland are given the opportunity to contribute ideas, create, and develop new projects and exhibitions in collaboration with artists and museums.

You will be employed by Museum Batavialand and will spend most of your time working on content for RUUM. In addition, you will devote a smaller portion of your hours to supporting content for Museum Batavialand.

About RUUM

RUUM is a four-year project in which three museums in Flevoland (Jij bent M, Museum Schokland, and Museum Batavialand) are collaborating to bring young people closer to the province's heritage. The project is made possible by the Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science. We use art and culture to discover stories from Flevoland in a new way. Young people decide for themselves how to shape those stories and where their ideas will be showcased.

An important part of this is the RUUMclub: a group of young people aged 16 to 20 who want to make a difference in Flevoland. This year, the RUUM exhibition is being held at Museum Batavialand, and the working group meets weekly at our museum.

RUUM collaborates with high schools in Flevoland, artists, and exhibition curators so that young people can contribute their thoughts, create, and turn their ideas into actual exhibitions from a variety of perspectives.

About the role

Do you enjoy working with social media, video, photography, and storytelling? Do you like creating content that appeals to young people, and do you want to develop your skills as a content marketer? Then we're looking for you.

Of your 20 hours per week, you'll spend about 16 hours working for RUUM and 4 hours for Museum Batavialand. You'll work closely with the content strategist, who sets the strategic and editorial direction. Within those parameters, you'll have the freedom to contribute your ideas, develop concepts, and create content.

What will you do?

For RUUM:

• You create and publish content for social media and the website.
• You take photos, shoot short videos, and create Reels, and edit them yourself.
• You'll work with the shared content calendar and ensure that scheduled content is published.
• You'll attend RUUMclub meetings and other activities to gather stories and visuals.
• You'll adapt stories from young people, creators, and colleagues into content that resonates with the target audience.
• You monitor results and discuss ideas and opportunities with the content strategist.

For Museum Batavialand, you'll help out with practical content tasks for about four hours a week. This could include a social media post about an exhibition, a Reel, a small website update, or content related to an event, fundraising, or corporate rentals.

Before any content is produced or published, you'll always coordinate it with the content strategist.

Sometimes an important event takes place in the evening or on the weekend. We therefore think it's important that you're occasionally available outside of regular working hours to create pre-agreed content.

Who are we looking for?

You're curious, creative, and enjoy gathering stories and turning them into content.

You:

• has an excellent command of the Dutch language and writes clearly and without errors;
• has a knack for social media, storytelling, visuals, and design;
• enjoy taking photos and videos and editing simple videos;
• come up with ideas and are open to feedback;
• takes on tasks independently and coordinates with the content strategist in a timely manner;
• enjoys collaborating with different people and organizations;
• have at least an MBO 4 level of work and thinking.

Experience with tools such as Canva, Adobe CC, CapCut, Mailchimp, or a CMS like WordPress is a plus. Do you enjoy being in front of the camera every now and then? That's also a plus, but definitely not a requirement.

Who do you work with?

You'll be part of the Marketing & Communications, Recruitment & Outreach team at Museum Batavialand. With you on board, the team will consist of eight people, including an intern.

Within RUUM, you'll also work closely with the content strategist, community manager, project leader, and educator, as well as with colleagues from Museum Schokland and Jij bent M.

What do we offer?

You'll have a unique entry-level position where you'll learn about many aspects of content marketing. For RUUM, you'll work on strategies for reaching young people and exploring how content can contribute to change in Flevoland. For Museum Batavialand, you'll help brainstorm ways to get more visitors excited about a museum visit and get a front-row seat to see how a major museum renovation project comes to life.

In addition, we offer:

• Terms of employment in accordance with the Museum Collective Bargaining Agreement
• Salary in pay scale 7
• A 20-hour-per-week position
• A one-year contract with the possibility of renewal
• Desired start date: January 4, 2027
• Year-end bonus of 3.4%, 8% vacation pay, and travel allowance outside of Lelystad
• Pension plan with a generous employer contribution
• Laptop and work phone provided by Museum Batavialand
• Annual personal learning budget
• Opportunity to attend relevant networking and marketing events
• Employee pass that allows you to visit Museum Batavialand for free and bring one guest
• An inspiring workplace on the Markermeer, as part of an enthusiastic and goal-oriented team
• A quarterly team outing and a plenary meeting with staff and volunteers

You'll work on-site at Museum Batavialand and will also regularly attend RUUM activities and meetings. In addition, you'll receive guidance from the content strategist, but there will also be opportunities to contribute your own ideas, try new things, and become increasingly independent.
